And this might be a discrepancy or notā¦
Happens when Mortum are MC are lovers already
Iām reading and rereading and I think maybe the text in chapter 15 should say Mortum doesnāt trust MC around the lab proper, maybe heās only allowed to see the bedroom and kitchen/living space thatās added to the lab but that isnāt Mortumās actual home?
Here is it
Chapter 14
label loverstart
Over the last few months, Dr. Mortumās lab have almost become like your second home.
*if puppet_individuality <= 40
No, not your home. {puppet_name}'s.
You still haven't chided {mhim} for not showing you {mhis} apartment when you showed {mhim} yours, but you suspect this is far more private. It comes as no surprise that {mhe} spends most of {mhis} time here, at least enough that ${mhe} has a fully furnished bedroom. The bathroom is more industrial than youād like, and whatās in the kitchen is not more than a microwave and a coffee machine, so you subsist mostly on frozen meals when you donāt head out for dinner.
The bedroom, however, is comfortable and the bed larger than needed. Have {mhe} brought other people here before? You wonder, you don't get the feeling that this is something {mhe}'s making a habit of.
Chapter 15
*if puppetmortum_relationship = āloversā
āIs it okay if I drop by? I need to get out of this place.ā You need company. A soft touch. A reminder that you are more than the shards of your past life. When ${mhe} touches you, they donāt feel quite as sharp.
[i]āOf course. Iāll let the network know you are incoming. Just make sure you donāt have any pests hanging around, Iād hate to make a mess. Out there anywayā¦ā the soft chuckle makes you smile despite yourself.
āReally?ā you say, trying to be stern. āIs this the time?ā
[i]āThere are more than one way of lightening a bad mood, ${title}.ā
āWeāll see,ā you canāt the smirk. āExpect me within the hour.ā
[i]āLooking forward to it.ā Thereās the faintest sound of a kiss before ${mhe} hangs up on you.
It took a while before Dr. Mortum trusted you enough to get access to {mhis} lab. For months, you needed to be escorted in, and you found it amusing that {mhe} would trust you with {mhis} bed and {mhis} heart, but not the location of ${mhis} research.
Both are the lab, but one is the āLiving quartersā of the lab, the other is where the funky test-tubes are. Just my toughts. The chapter 15 part seems to indicate Mc is trusted at Mortumās home which is not the case according to chapter 14.
